Back to Bangkok - 2/21/18

Visiting our friend, PO

The snake and I

Wat in Phibun

Hello my dudes. How's it going?

I hope that you all had solid weeks. This week was transfers which was really weird! There were some unexpected results! I am leaving Ubon already and will be serving in part of east Bangkok called Bangkapi. I will be "whitewashing" the area with Elder Julander. I'm excited to start working there! 

This week was a really good week! We had a lot of great experiences for my last week here. We visited a really cool recent convert named PO. He is an amazing guy. He is about 93 years old, but he got a PhD about 2 or 3 years ago. He's really sharp and has a good testimony. He's such a cute old guy.  

All the people in Phibun are still way good! We didn't go out there too much this week, but all the people there are amazing. I love the small town feeling that it has. 

Something really fun that happened this week is that one of our English students brought her pet snake to class, so we all got to play with it. It was a way cool snake, and I even got to bike over to a restaurant with it on my shoulders, which was a pretty fun experience. 

Even though it's been a long week, I don't know what else to talk about! Most of the days is just work like usual, haha. 

I'm so glad that I had the opportunity to come serve here in Ubon! I've loved it here so much! The people are amazing, the city and surrounding area are gorgeous, and the love from the members is so strong! I'm sad to leave, but I know that I'll be able to go help out the people of Bangkok some more! 

Have a great week this week!

Shout out to Lukas Ridd! He just got back from his mission today. He's an awesome brother and example. I love him so much! <3 

I love and miss you all!
